Van Nuys Gang Crimes Defense Lawyer
Criminal Defense Attorney Helping Clients in Van Nuys
Have you or someone you know been charged with a gang crime in Van Nuys? More than 1,400 criminal street gangs exist in Los Angeles County, committing crimes ranging from graffiti to armed robbery to murder. Because of this, the County is especially focused on prosecuting gang crimes and stopping gang violence. The Los Angeles County D.A.'s office aggressively prosecutes criminal gang activity with more than 50 specially trained and experienced lawyers in the Hardcore Gang Division. Under the Street Terrorism and Prevention Act, deputy district attorneys are allowed to seek harsher penalties for gang members.
